About The Renovation of Ankang Library Hoone

Algne Ankangi raamatukogu avati 1984. aastal ja selle rajatised olid enne renoveerimist infoajastust maha jäänud. Renoveerimisprojekt on noorendanud vana raamatukogu uueks, avatud ja tervitatavaks kogukonnaruumiks, tõstes esile ja luues tugeva kontrasti selle olemasoleva kontekstiga. Avamisest alates on uus raamatukogu taaskäivitanud kohaliku kogukonna kultuurielu ning igapäevaste külastajate arv on kasvanud 10 inimeselt 3000 inimeseni.

Inspiration
The new Ankang Library adopts a modern curtain wall system, forming a concise massing and pure colour. The transparent glazing combined with the delicate perforated aluminum cladding create an effect akin to a halo. When the two buildings are seen with the vibrant and disordered old city, the following strong contrast brings unexpected drama and contrast. Forty years of passed time are visible with these two urban realms, like a surreal space-time dislocation.
